There is a lot going on with the background of the pandemic highlighting the difficulties of mental health and the inadequacy and underfunding of services that are (and always have been) available for people affected.
I try and highlight some of the national news on this website but if you want more then take a look at these.

I receive reglar emails from these sites and I recommend having a look at their websites and recommend subscribing (they are free) if you really want to keep up to date with national news, find resources, blogs and research.
